i thought if the car itself were very clean the passengers would most 35 be considerate and refrain from littering.”“so when i got a 36 to be a taxi-driver, i began 37 my idea into practice-to tidy and 38 the car. now before a new passenger gets on my car, id make a cheek and be sure it is in good order.when my car 39 after a days work, it always remains 40 .”when doing a thing, one makes efforts and wants to see the result. to change others, one has to make twice the 41 but get half the result. to change oneself is the other way round-more fruit with less effort. one had better ask oneself why one makes 42 on others much more than on oneself. 43 you take enough care to do as best you can for other peoples sake, your efforts will yield results, if you 44 the inner world of your own, examine yourself and wipe out the dust and dirt, instead of fixing your eyes on other people, you will find a cheerful 45 for yourself and create a pleasant environment for others.【小题11】a.permit b.1icense c.certificate d.passport【小题12】a.put b.take c.maked.get【小题13】a.provide b.drive c.decorate d.describe【小题14】a.speeds b.leaves c.arrives d.returns【小题15】a.spotless b.pretty c.bright d.dirty【小题16】a.progress b.effort c.attempt d.trial【小题17】a.suggestionsb.commentsc.demands d.decisions【小题18】a.though b.while c.as d.if【小题19】a.look into b.look for c.look up d.look through【小题20】a.spirit b.mood c.mind d.sense【答案】【小题1】c【小题2】a【小题3】d【小题4】d【小题5】b【小题6】b【小题7】c【小题8】d【小题9】c【小题10】a【小题11】b【小题12】a【小题13】c【小题14】d【小题15】a【小题16】b【小题17】c【小题18】d【小题19】a【小题20】b【小题20】考查名词辨析。you will find a cheerful 45 for yourself如果你进行自我反省的话，就会找到一种欢乐的情绪，同时也为他人创造一种愉快的环境。a精神；b情绪；c思维，心思，大脑；d感觉。故选b。考点：故事类短文阅读第二部分 阅读理解(共25小题；每小题2分, 满分50分) 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给四个选项(a、b、c、d)中,选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。ain america, virginia beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort: brilliant beaches, a lively boardwalk, plenty of restaurants and nightspots, and amusement rides are sure to appeal to kids. many believe virginia beach is at its best in the off-season, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild.meanwhile, some safety tips should be followed, enjoying the happiness and excitement the beach offers.the number l safety tip concerns ocean safety: pay attention to flag conditions posted on the lifeguard stands. lifeguards post a red flag to warn when the ocean water is dangerous. take them seriously! tourists from land-locked regions are particularly easily attracted by the magic of the waves. however, a calm ocean can become risky without warning. make sure you swim near a lifeguard. swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards.never swim alone. many drownings involve single swimmers. when you swim with someone else, if one of you has a problem, the other may be able to get help, including signaling for assistance from others.dont fight the current. the facts show that some 80% of rescues by lifeguards at ocean beaches are caused by currents. these currents are formed by surf and gravity, because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach, gravity pulls it back. this can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore. if you are caught in a rip current, dont fight it by trying to swim directly to shore. instead, swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax, then swim to shore. most rip currents are narrow and a short swim parallel to shore will help bring you to safety.【小题1】when coming to virginia beach, children can enjoy the happiness of .a. walking on the road made of wood b. joining the nightspotsc. having interesting rides d. skiing in the sea【小题2】many people believe the best time to visit virginia beach may be . a. after autumn school term beginning b. in the slimmer vacationc. during the christmas holiday d. in the cold winter【小题3】swimming in the sea youd better not swim . a. with a friend b. within the sight of the lifeguardc. with the current d. as far as you like【小题4】from the passage, we can know . a. one in five persons swimming in the sea is drownedb. if one with lifeguard were drowning, five persons without lifeguard would bec. some 80% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguardsd. some 20% drowning by the currents are rescued by life guards【小题5】the passage mainly tells us . a. some safety tips when swimming in the seab. the happiness and excitement the beach offersc. virginia beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resortd. the dangers for tourists from land-locked regions to swim in the sea【小题3】根据“make sure you swim near a lifeguard.never swim alone.instead, swim parallel to shore until you b oh, you must have been a spoiled(宠坏的) kid. you must be really bossy. i wonder what youre going to be like to deal with? thats often the response angela hult gets when people find out shes an only child, she told abc news, despite such negative(消极的) remarks, hult has decided to have only one child herself. and shes not alone. according to the us office for national statistics, women approaching the end of their childbearing years had an average of l.9 children in 2004, compared with 3.1 for their counterparts in 1976. the percentage of one-child families in britain had risen from 18 percent in 1972 to 26 percent in 2007. but even though only children are becoming increasingly common, the traditional view that theyre selfish, spoilt and lack social skills holds strong. even parents of only children, like hult, are made to feel guilty about having only one child. worried that theyre being selfish and endangering their childs future, they flock to online discussion forums seeking advice. soon, however, they ask themselves: is this social prejudice really reasonable? there have been hundreds and hundreds of research studies that show that only children are no different from their peers(同龄人) , susan newman, a social psychologist at rutgers university in the us, told abc news. this raises another question: why are only children still viewed with such suspicion? there is a belief thats been around probably since humans first existed that to have just one child is somehow dangerous, both for you and for the continuation of your race, toni falbo, a professor of educational psychology, told the guardian. in the past a lot of children died, youd have had to be crazy to only have one. times, of course, have changed and infant mortality(婴儿死亡率) has largely reduced. so what do only children themselves say? kayley kravitz, a blogger for the huffington post, grew up as an only child and highly recommends the experience. being an only child taught me the most valuable skill of all: the ability to be alone, she said.【小题1】which of the following could be the best title for the text? a. are only children lonely? b. are only children common? c. are only children dangerous? d. are only children different?【小题2】what does susan newman mean? a. only children are as good as their peers. b. only children are more selfish and spoiled. c. parents feel guilty about having only one child. d. parents will endanger their only childs future.【小题3】what is the common belief since human existed? a. the infant death rate always stays high. b. people are crazy to have only one child. c. its easy for only children to earn their living. d.its hard to continue the family line with only one child.【小题4】an only child like kayley _. a. must be difficult to persuade b. can possibly learn to be alone c. should value special skills d. need ignore bad experience【小题5】whats the authors attitude towards having only one child? a. neutral. b. negative. c. positive. d. doubtful.【答案】【小题1】d【小题2】a【小题3】dc a baby born in india has been declared the worlds seven billionth person by child rights group plan international. baby nargis was born at 07:25 local time (01:55gmt) in mall village in indias uttar pradesh state. plan international says nargis has been chosen symbolically as it is not possible to know where exactly the seven billionth baby is born. in addition to baby nargis in india, bangladesh, the philippines and cambodia have all identified seven billionth babies. the united nations estimated that on monday 31 october, the worlds population would reach seven billion. populations are growing faster than economies in many poor countries in africa and some in asia. at the same time, low birth rates in japan and many european nations have raised concerns about labor shortages. population experts at the united nations estimated that the world reached six billion in october 1999. they predict nine billion by 2050 and ten billion by the end of the century. chinas population of one and a third billion is currently the worlds largest. india is second at 1.2 billion. but india is expected to pass china and reach one and a half billion people around 2025. india will also have one of the worlds youngest populations. economists say this is a chance for a so-called demographic dividend. india could gain from the skills of young people in a growing economy at a time when other countries have aging populations. but economists say current rates of growth, although high, may not create enough jobs. also, the public education system is failing to meet demand and schooling is often of poor quality. another concern is health care. nearly half of indias children under the age of five are malnourished(营养不良). michal rutkowski, the director of human development in south asia at the world bank, says reaching seven billion people in the world is a good time for a call to action. he says, “i think the bottom line of the story is that the public policy needs to become really, really serious about sex equality and about access to servicesto fight against malnutrition, and to provide for access to health services, water and schooling.”【小题1】what is true about the worlds seven billionth person?a. baby nargis is not the only child chosen as the seven billionth baby.b. baby nargis has been chosen carefully so it is exactly the seven billionth baby.c. three countries have all declared baby nargis as the seven billi011th baby.d. the united nations declared baby nargis as the worlds seven billionth person.【小题2】which of the following problems do many european countries worry about?a. labor shortage. b. poor health care.c. not enough jobs.d. schooling of poor quality.【小题3】according to population experts, how long will it take for population to grow from six billion to nine billion?a. about 12 years. b. about 40 years. c. about 50 years. d. about 110 years.【小题4】what does the underlined phrase “demographic dividend” in the fourth paragraph refer to?a. possibility of lower birth rate.b. benefit gained by working young people.c. chances for more employment.d. disadvantages caused by aging population.【小题5】which of the following public policies does michal rutkowski call on?a. to encourage late marriage. b. to reduce worlds population.c. to gain economic equality. d. to improve health and education.d how often do you sit still and do absolutely nothing? the usual answer these days is“never” or “hardly ever”. as the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. but relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body. stress is a natural part of everyday life. there is no way to avoid it, since it takes many and varied forms-driving in traffic, problems with personal relationships are all different forms of stress. stress, in fact, is not the “baddy” it is often reputed to be. a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. it is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health. the amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. others lose heart at the first sight of unusual
